A Quarantine
By; George Martinez
(A.K.A) QC Poet / Chochee Medina
A Rondeau Poem Offering for 7-10-20
Notes;
Please see Rondeau poem Rules in the Potlatch Poetry Rules section.
As a Kidney Transplant patient with a compromised immune system - I need to take this pandemic influenza very seriously.
Photos of me masked for additional protection and when I was on a ventilator due to the kidney transplant.
Ears covered Who's Listening?
The Spanish flue hit 3 times, Spring, fall, and winter of 1918. Approximately 500 million people or one-third of the world's population became infected with this virus. The number of deaths was estimated to be at least 50 million worldwide with about 675,000 occurring in the United States. Mortality was high in people younger than 5 years old, 20-40 years old, and 65 years and older. The high mortality in healthy people, including those in the 20-40 year age group, was a unique feature of this pandemic.
